There were 200 tickets sold and adult tickets were $7.50 each while children’s tickets were $4.75 each. If the total amount of money counted was $1197.50, how many children’s tickets were sold?

Let adult tickets sold = A

Let children tickets sold=C

 

A+C =200

7.50A + 4.75C =1197.50, solve for A, C

A = 90

C =110 number of children tickets sold.
